He honed his skills at several prestigious Chinese fine dining establishments including Tung Lok Restaurant Group, Li Bai Chinese Restaurant at Sheraton Towers Singapore and Summer Palace at the former Regent Hotel.
Chef Leung also worked for 12 years as Cantonese executive chef at Si Chuan Dou Hua at Parkroyal on Kitchener Road, a fine dining restaurant of the Pan Pacific Hotels Group, further cementing his status in the culinary world.

Some of his signature dishes, which he will continue to serve at Pan Pacific Orchard, include his repertoire of boiled soups, which exemplify the traditional techniques of 'san bao liu dun' (三煲六炖), the visually stunning Exotic Garden Yusheng. with osmanthus and black truffle sauce, a festive favorite transformed into a year-round delicacy, as well as crispy noodles with Australian lobster meat, ginger and chives, served in an egg sauce with lobster broth, all minimally seasoned to highlight the freshness of the ingredients.
Chef Leung will showcase his talents at The Chairman's Lounge private dining concept at Pan Pacific Orchard and will also oversee the hotel's Chinese banquet kitchen.
“My culinary philosophy focuses on respecting the traditional essence of Chinese cuisine, showing the unique characteristics of each dish to my guests,” said Chef Leung. “At The Chairman's Lounge I see an exciting setting for my culinary creativity. My goal is to create dishes that not only appeal to the senses but also weave a narrative, connecting diners to the rich legacy of Chinese culinary tradition. “It is a privilege to bring my passion and experience to Pan Pacific Orchard, where I hope to create memorable dining experiences that touch both the heart and the palate.”
